As the name of the album (which is derived from a line in track five, "Eureka!") and many of the track titles indicate, the major lyrical theme of The Fear, The Fear, The Fear is fear. Other major themes include anxiety, worry, isolation, monotony, and acceptance.

This album marks a shift in sound for Defiance, Ohio, with Ryan Woods taking up an electric bass instead of his usual double bass.

Production
gollark: I don't think that makes much sense either honestly. I mean, the whole point of... political systems... is that they organize people in some way. If they don't work on people in ways you could probably point out very easily theoretically, they are not very good.
gollark: inb4 "but capitalism kills literally everyone who dies in worse-off countries"
gollark: > that one pattern of red and green that is an actual cognitohazardWait, what?
gollark: What even are half of these? These seem, er, worrying.
gollark: It would be environmentally friendly, since you wouldn't need electricity or gas or something to cook.
